Good thing it wasn't a '69 500 also hope only feelings were hurt!

Am I missing something here? I thought it was a Charger 500 too based on the lettering on the rear tail panel, but shouldn't a Charger 500 not have the flying buttresses off the roofline and have a flush fiting rear window?

Only '69 Charger 500's had the Daytona style flush rear glass, the '70 500's were basically a regular Charger w/ trim option.
This is exactly why I posted previously about it being a good thing it wasn't a '69 500, didn't notice the story was 6 years old.

I was told Colin was driving the 1969 Trans Am. I believe Steve Forer, the guy I sold my 1967 Chevelle to is underneath him, or he was driving the #60 Corvette,

Bill, how funny. I was there to see Steve, he's a bit out of the picture. He was actually standing still and got hit from behind. He's a good racer, I'll be there in a week to see him go for his third National Championship in a row. He has the SCCA record at Road America and a few other tracks.

Tim,

That is funny! You know both Tom O'Grady &amp; Steve Forer, 2 guys I sold cars to! What a small world. While I was delivering the Chevelle up to Steve's house in White Fish Bay Wisconsin, Steve was ahead of me leading the way, and we stopped off at his &quot;Mechanic&quot; to look at his Corvette being repaired after a crash in the summer of 2007. Do you know if he still has my old Black 1967 SS Chevelle? I knew when I sold it to him it would have a good home.

Bill
